Cheryl Durzy

Cheryl Durzy is a mother of two kids (that never fight, ever), a wife and 15 year veteran of the wine industry. She currently manages sales and marketing for Clos LaChance Winery, located in the foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Cheryl has also created and developed several other popular brands, including the world infamous MommyJuice Wines. Her street cred includes several industry certifications, including the Intro Certificate to the Guild of Master Sommeliers and an Advanced Certificate (with Merit!) from the Wine and Spirits Education Trust. Cheryl also sits on several industry boards, including the Santa Cruz Mountains Winegrowers Association (where she was once President...gavel and all), Free the Grapes and the California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance. Parent Pairings is Cheryl's first book, but hopefully not her last. In her free time (2 kids! Job! What free time?), Cheryl likes to run, ski, read and tear it up with her posse of mom friends from the hood (Willow Glen in San Jose, CA).
